While capitalism received a largely favorable response, Pew also found that at least 25 percent of respondents across all age groups, races, income levels and ideologies were dismissive of capitalism.
Tea Party sympathizers, conservative Republicans and those making more than $75,000 a year were the most likely to respond positively, while slightly more than half of blacks and Hispanics took the opposite view.
Almost 50 percent of those aged 18 to 29, those making less than $30,000 a year and Occupy Wall Street backers also had an unfavorable reaction to capitalism.
A majority of blacks and liberal Democrats, meanwhile, reacted positively to socialism. But while reactions to capitalism were fairly consistent across all age groups, 18-to-29-year-olds were more than three times more likely (49 percent to 13 percent) to endorse socialism than those older than 65.

You did indeed read my mind! I too love The Kingston Trio! The lyrics of this song are fitting for any time in the Atomic Age History.
:) Grew up on the Kingston Trio. This song popped into my head a couple months ago...had to look it up to remember the title, then had to learn it on my guitar! Can’t remember what made me think of it, but it’s a great little tune, and like you said, always fitting!
If you knowing hired Mexican NAtionals to work for you then you are a criminal.
If those were US citizens of Mexican decent then they were hard working AMERICANS. Your comments are totally racist.
Thank you for that. It’s great.
It is telling to see the attempt to separate "blacks" as being something other than "liberal Democrats."
Soooooo, just how many blacks are running around being classified only as "conservatives?"
Yeah, that's the answer I usually get...

Despite the colege DEGREE....they don’t have a college education, they don’t even have a REAL high school education, most of them could not pass an eighth grade final from sixty years ago.
Our language has been re-shaped to favor Socialism. “Capitalism” is itself a word coined by Karl Marx. Otherwise we would use the term “free enterprise” or something like that.
Satan has found a movement that works for him; his Socialism is breaking down the family, the government, education, religion and entertainment, and the media, using and abusing the very language that we use to try to communicate. He has stacked the deck.
However, he is not the one in charge. He is being watched and is moving according to God’s schedule as shown in The Revelation.
Come, Lord Jesus.
.................Your comments are totally racist. ............
Thanks for the kind comments, A-hole!
When I hire contractors, I only check to be sure they have Worker’s Comp, I don’t search their “papers”!
I agree. Understanding our founding principles will really help in giving a sense of wonder for the American experiment which will help in turning around the situation we find ourselves in.
I think they are confusing the hippies from the sixties who are not socialists but social idiots.
Criminal.
